My roomie and I decided to stop drinking coke/caff. this week, because we both lose weight when we stop sucking down 20oz. every other day..and I'm getting surgery that won't allow cokes for a great deal afterward, anyway. So. This is our second day without it. And I'm going crazy. What can I drink that is carbonated, but is caff. free and doesn't contain all the crap that regular coke does??!
carbonated water and fruit juice? does that just sound really naff? lol or just fizzy apple juice is nice lol
Root beer is caffeine free.... except for Barq's.... it's naturally caffeine free... Very good, too. I'm sure there are some kinds that have less sugar and stuff. I've seen organic root beer or whatever at the health food store. Even Kroger has some.
We have a natural health food store here. I didn't notice any beverages there, with the exception of protein shake mix...but then again, I never had the chance to really look around. I'll have to check it out.
I'm sure there is Diet Decaff version of Coke. What is carbonated and caffeine free? Are you kidding? There are plenty of different (tasting) fizzy and sugar-free drinks. Caffeine is not the norm. They're all just soda water, flavoring and sugar (or artificial sweetener). But yeah it's a great idea to switch to diet sodas. I'm not even trying to lose weight and i never drink that (well, except when i'm drunk).
When I worked at Wild Oats, they had a bunch of caffeine free carbonated stuff. I tried a couple different ones but the ones I tried tasted pretty nasty. There might a good variety but I gave up and just drank water or juice.
